美联储官员目前在应该更担心通胀还是就业市场风险的问题上存在分歧。他们将仔细审视周二的这份报告，以评估企业在多大程度上将与关税相关的成本增 加转嫁给了消费者。 美国劳工部周二表示，美国12月CPI同比上涨2.7%，与去年11月持平。剔除波动较大的食品和能源成本后，核心CPI同比上涨2.6%，也与去年11月持平。二 者均低于市场预期。 经季节性调整后的12月CPI环比上涨0.3%，符合经济学家的预期；12月核心CPI环比上涨0.2%。经济学家此前预计该数据将上涨0.3%。 数据公布后，现货黄金短线走高超10美元，并一度站上4620美元；现货白银盘中一度大涨3%；美元指数急跌后小幅反弹。 12月的CPI报告为这一年画上了句号。尽管特朗普政府在2025年初宣布对进口商品征收高额关税，但这一年的通胀表现比许多人预测的要温和。通胀确实在 夏季有所回升，但幅度并不明显。 尽管如此，经济学家仍有兴趣观察1月和2月的通胀表现，因为许多企业会在年初调整价格。经济学家的共识是，今年通胀可能会继续沿着曲折下行的路径发 展，尽管途中可能会有颠簸。 RSM首席经济学家Joseph Brusuelas认为，《大而美法案》带来的减税措施可能 ...

Core Viewpoint - The Japanese yen continues to weaken due to market concerns over Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's fiscal policies, with expectations that the Bank of Japan may raise its benchmark interest rate as early as April [1][3]. Group 1: Monetary Policy and Interest Rates - Former Bank of Japan official Makoto Sakurai suggests that the central bank is unlikely to implement measures to support the yen in its upcoming meetings, placing the responsibility on the Japanese Ministry of Finance if the yen continues to decline [3]. - The Bank of Japan raised its benchmark interest rate to 0.75%, the highest in 30 years, but this has only prevented further depreciation of the yen without driving its appreciation [3][4]. - Market expectations indicate a 40% probability of a rate hike in April, with the central bank's policy committee likely to raise rates approximately every six months [4]. Group 2: Fiscal Policy and Economic Stimulus - Takaichi's proposed large-scale economic stimulus and significant budget plans have led to a loss of market confidence, raising questions about the rationale for such expansive fiscal spending amid rising inflation [4][6]. - Since taking office, Takaichi has introduced the largest supplementary budget since the pandemic and set the highest initial budget for the next fiscal year in Japan's history [6]. - While inflation has increased tax revenues to historical highs, concerns remain about the lack of clarity regarding funding sources for Takaichi's spending plans, which are viewed as overly loose and potentially dangerous [7]. Group 3: Market Reactions and Currency Implications - The yen is hovering near the intervention threshold set by the Japanese Ministry of Finance for 2024, with its decline beginning last October amid Takaichi's anticipated election and her criticism of the Bank of Japan's rate hikes [5]. - The 30-year Japanese government bond yield reached a historical high of 3.52%, reflecting market skepticism about Takaichi's fiscal policies and their impact on the yen [7]. - Sakurai emphasizes that Takaichi's fiscal measures are a core factor suppressing the yen's value, and rebuilding market trust will be a challenging task [7].

Core Viewpoint - Yonghui Supermarket's attempt to replicate the "Pang Donglai model" has not yielded positive results, as it continues to face significant losses, with projected negative net profit for 2025 [1] Group 1: Imitation of the Pang Donglai Model - Yonghui has adopted superficial aspects of the Pang Donglai model, such as store design and service processes, but failed to grasp the underlying value distribution system and regional focus [2] - Initial changes attracted customers, with some stores seeing foot traffic increase by over 80%, but issues like price hikes and inadequate service led to customer dissatisfaction [2] - The disparity in employee compensation is stark, with Pang Donglai distributing over 90% of profits to employees, while Yonghui's employee incentives have been minimal, leading to dissatisfaction among staff [2] Group 2: Operational Challenges - Yonghui's strategy of closing stores to emulate Pang Donglai's "less is more" approach has resulted in significant one-time costs, amounting to tens of billions [3] - The company's nationwide expansion strategy has created a burden of high rental costs, contrasting with Pang Donglai's debt-free, self-owned property model [2][3] Group 3: Supply Chain and Market Position - Yonghui's supply chain reforms have been rushed, leading to inconsistent product quality and a lack of deep supplier relationships, which has negatively impacted customer experience [4] - The company faces external pressures from community group buying, fresh e-commerce, and warehouse membership stores, with over 60% of consumers shifting to online shopping [5] Group 4: Employee Value and Corporate Philosophy - Yonghui's underestimation of the importance of employees in retail has hindered its transformation efforts, as successful models prioritize employee welfare to enhance customer service [5][6] - Despite overall losses, some adjusted stores have become profitable, indicating that the direction is not entirely wrong, but the approach needs refinement [6] - The challenges faced by Yonghui highlight the need for a balance between capital logic and humanistic care, as well as between short-term financial results and long-term value [6]

Group 1 - Citigroup has raised its short-term price forecasts for gold and silver, expecting a bull market for precious metals to continue until early 2026 [1] - The target price for gold has been increased to $5,000 per ounce, while silver's target price is set at $100 per ounce, driven by geopolitical risks, persistent physical market shortages, and renewed uncertainties regarding the independence of the Federal Reserve [1] - Recent international gold prices have reached historical highs, with a 7% increase over the past month and a 12% increase over the past three months; silver has outperformed with a 36% increase in the last month and a 60% increase over the last three months [1] Group 2 - Citigroup warns that if high tariffs are implemented, the concentration of related metals in the U.S. market could exacerbate global shortages and potentially lead to extreme price surges [2] - The strategist team indicates that once tariff policies become clearer, metal inventories hoarded in the U.S. may flow back into the global market, alleviating supply pressures and suppressing metal prices [2] - Despite the potential for price corrections due to inventory outflows, the team emphasizes that such pullbacks would present buying opportunities, as the core positive factors driving the metal sector remain unchanged [2]

普遍共识认为，独立的央行对任何发达经济体都至关重要，只要看看土耳其或阿根廷，就能明白让行政 权力干预国家货币当局会有多具灾难性。 对于美联储，其甚至是全球金融的基石，美国总统特朗普干预美联储就是越过红线，意味着招致恐慌和 潜在的厄运。但话说回来：人生苦短，何妨一试（YOLO）？ 司法部向美联储主席鲍威尔发出刑事调查传票的消息，仅仅让金融市场受到了短暂且温和的惊吓。至于 那些视美联储独立性为底线问题的美国企业领袖们呢？他们同样无动于衷，至少在公开场合是这样。 过去一年里，随着特朗普无休止地施压要求降低利率，鲍威尔一直是特朗普最喜欢的出气筒。鲍威尔在 上周日晚间发表声明，透露联邦检察官正在调查美联储和他本人，表面理由是鲍威尔关于美联储总部翻 修成本超支的国会证词。 然而，这种私下的恐慌并没有公开的迹象。没有任何大型企业、贸易团体或CEO站出来表达他们对美联 储的担忧，而美联储设定利率的权力直接影响着企业的运营方式。 代表美国最大公司CEO的商业圆桌会议（Business Roundtable）未回应置评请求。 Sonnenfeld指出了哈雷戴维森（Harley-Davidson）的例子。2018年特朗普第一个任期 ...

"我们继续认为美联储的信誉是无可匹敌的，"标普在这份报告中表示。"这支撑了美国的货币灵活性以 及美元作为首要国际储备货币的地位——这两者都是主权评级的关键组成部分。" 这些声明共同强调，尽管市场迄今为止对政治噪音反应平淡，但信用评级机构将央行独立性视为不可动 摇的制度基石。他们指出，任何对这种独立性的持续削弱，其影响都将不仅限于市场，还会波及美国主 权信用状况本身。 当周一被要求就最新事态发表评论时，标普的一位发言人让记者参考该机构此前的报告。 惠誉发表上述评论之际，特朗普政府威胁要起诉美联储主席鲍威尔，原因是他去年夏天就美联储建筑项 目发表的国会证词。鲍威尔称此举是试图获得对央行和货币政策更多影响力的"借口"。 信用评级机构标普也曾指出，美联储的信誉是美国主权评级的一大关键优势。在去年10月份的一份报告 中，标普表示，如果"政治事态发展对美国制度的强度、长期决策的有效性或美联储的独立性造成压 力"，评级"可能会面临压力"。 随着美国司法部威胁起诉美联储主席鲍威尔，评级机构已明确划定美联储独立性的界限，惠誉周一表 示，其将美联储的独立性视为维持美国AA+主权评级的关键支撑因素。 惠誉高级董事Richard F ...
